Spear’s Review

Established in 1666, auction house and collectibles company Spink & Son is nestled in an old post office building in the heart of London’s Bloomsbury. According to chairman and CEO Olivier D Stocker: ‘Regardless of what happens in the wider world ... collectors just keep on collecting!’ 

The firm, founded by John Spink in London's Lombard Street, has continued to sell high-value items including gold and silver coins, stamps and banknotes, stock and bond certificates, wine, spirits and medals via frequent auctions in London, New York, Hong Kong, Switzerland and Singapore. In 1900, it received its first Royal Warrant for medals services to Queen Victoria. 

It also offers an online service for those unable to visit their showroom.
